DEFINITION

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:13:42 UTC

Presence of stones in the kidney.

CAUSES

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:13:56 UTC

The formation of kidney stones cannot be attributed to a particular cause, but several factors increase the risk such as a decrease in urine volume or excess of stone-forming substances in the urine.

Other risk factors include:

Dehydration.
Obesity.
Certain Foods.
Family History
Diseases
Certain Medical Conditions

SYMPTOMS

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:14:15 UTC

Some kidney stones pass on their own when they are small before causing any symptoms. Larger stones block urine flow and cause painful symptoms such as back pain, abdominal pain, burning sensation during urination, blood in urine and fever, and urinary retention. Pain also worsens during movement.

TREATMENT

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:14:22 UTC

Urgent medical attention is usually recommended in severe cases by healthcare providers.
Can be dangerous or life threatening if untreated.
Treatable by a medical professional.
Requires lab test or imaging.
Can last several weeks or months.

The kidney stop working so it cant removed waste and balancing fluids

CAUSES

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:14:34 UTC

Diabetes and high blood pressure were the leading causes of kidney failure other risk include heart disease, a family history of CKD, inherited kidney disorders, past damaging to the kidneys and old aging

SYMPTOMS

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:14:40 UTC

Fatigueing, nauseaing and vomiting, swelling (edema) around your hand or ankls, poor appetites, peeing and pooping more often, dry or itchy skin and cramps

TREATMENT

Dialysising or a kidney transplanting

DEFINITION

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:14:52 UTC

a rare disorder that affects the balance of water in the body

CAUSES

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:14:57 UTC

deficiency of antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin

SYMPTOMS

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:01 UTC

excessive, extreme, unorthodox, and relinguishable thirst (polydipsia) and excessive, extreme, uncalled for urination (polyuria). Individuals with this condition may produce large volumes of diluted urine, leading to excruciating dehydration and desparate electrolyte imbalances if not properly managed.

TREATMENT

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:06 UTC

Treatment depends on the specific type of diabetes insipidus. Central diabetes insipidus may be treated with synthetic forms of ADHD, while nephrogenic diabetes insipidus management focuses on addressing the underlying causes and sometimes involves dietary adjustments and medications.

DEFINITION

A blood purifying treatment given when kidney function is not optimum.

WHAT KIND OF DISEASE

WHY USE THIS METHOD

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:22 UTC

Dialysis helps perform the tasks and function of your kidneys using a machine. Dialysis also helps people with kidney failure to remove waste and excess fluid from their blood when their kidneys can no longer perform this integral function.

DEFINITION

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:31 UTC

diabetic nephropathy is a kidney diabetes disease which affects the kidneys usual work for removing waste products and extra fluid from the body, over the years it affects the kidneys filtering system.

CAUSES

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:35 UTC

Diabetic nephropathy happens when diabetes damage blood vessels and other cells in the kidney. since the kidneys have millions of tiny blood vessel clusters called glomeruli the diabetes attacks it, what glomeruli does is it filters waste from the blood. Damage to these blood vessels can lead to diabetic nephropathy. The damage can keep the kidneys from working as they should and lead to kidney failure.

SYMPTOMS

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:40 UTC

high blood pressure that can't be controlled
swelling in legs, armpits or eyes
foamy urine
confusion or difficulty thinking
shortness of breath
loss of appetite
nausea or vomiting
tiredness and weak
itching

TREATMENT

There is no medical treatment

DEFINITION

Cystitis is the medical term for inflammation of the bladder

CAUSES

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:15:57 UTC

The most common cause of cystitis is the invasion of bacteria into the bladder. Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria, which normally inhabit the colon, are often responsible for causing urinary tract infections.

SYMPTOMS

nobleac1 — 2024-01-26 03:16:02 UTC

Frequent and urgent need to urinate

Burning or pain during urination

Cloudy or strong-smelling urine

Lower abdominal discomfort or pain

Hematuria (blood in the urine)

TREATMENT

antibiotics to clear the bacterial infection

DEFINITION

can be associated with various medical conditions, and it is often used in the context of two distinct conditions: polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and polycystic kidney disease (PKD).

CAUSES

2024-01-26 04:57:37 UTC

PCOS, or polycystic ovarian syndrome:

Hormonal Imbalance: High levels of insulin and androgens, or male hormones, are two of the main hormonal imbalances that define PCOS. Although the precise source of these hormone imbalances is not entirely known, genetics may be involved.

Insulin Resistance: People with PCOS frequently have insulin resistance, which is a condition in which the body's cells don't react to insulin as intended. This may result in more insulin being produced, which could then fuel an excess of androgens and cause ovarian cysts to form.

Disease of the Polycystic Kidney (PKD):

hereditary Factors: PKD is inherited from one or both parents because it is a hereditary disorder. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) are the two main forms of polycystic kidney disease (PKD).

ADPKD: This kind is inherited autosomally dominantly and is caused by mutations in either the PKD1 or PKD2 gene. This indicates that a person with the illness has a 50% probability of passing it on to each of their offspring.

ARPKD: This less common variant is inherited autosomally recessively and is brought on by mutations in the PKHD1 gene. For a child to be impacted, both parents need to have a copy of the defective gene.

SYMPTOMS

2024-01-26 04:57:45 UTC

PCOS: The hormonal imbalance in PCOS can lead to irregular menstrual cycles, anovulation (lack of ovulation), and symptoms such as hirsutism (excess hair growth), acne, and insulin resistance. PCOS is a complex condition with a range of symptoms, and its exact cause is not fully understood.

PKD: These cysts can interfere with kidney function over time, leading to complications such as high blood pressure and kidney failure

TREATMENT

2024-01-26 04:57:53 UTC

The treatment for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is typically focused on managing symptoms and addressing specific concerns related to hormonal imbalances, irregular periods, and other associated issues. The specific treatment plan can vary based on an individual's symptoms, health goals, and whether they are trying to conceive.

The treatment for polycystic kidney disease (PKD) aims to manage symptoms, slow the progression of the disease, and prevent complications. Treatment approaches may vary depending on the specific type of PKD (autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease - ADPKD or autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease - ARPKD) and the individual's overall health.
